One particularly striking aspect of the โ€œhuman nervous systemโ€ that feels akin to the inside of a โ€œpowerfulโ€ computer is the extraordinary parallel, distributed, and energy-efficient processing happening across its roughly 86 billion neurons and up to 100โ€“1,000 trillionโ€ฆ
synaptic connections.

Imagine the densest, most sophisticated GPU cluster or supercomputer humanity has ever builtโ€”something capable of exaFLOP-scale performance (10ยนโธ floating-point operations per second). Now picture that entire monstrous system fitting inside a volumeโ€ฆ Image
smaller than a medium-sized melon, running on roughly 20 watts of power (about what a dim light bulb uses), and doing it without needing massive cooling fans or liquid nitrogen.

That's roughly the efficiency comparison: modern top-tier supercomputers that approach or exceed

#SupremeCourt to hear petitions assailing the #SIR process in West Bengal

Development: Following SC'sย recent order for deployment of judicial officersย to ensure completion of SIR in WB the Calcutta HC has decided to cancel the leaves of all judicial officers @MamataOfficial Image
CJI Kant: Chief Justice of HC has sent a report. The total human resource deployed is shown. He says there is not much resources.. around 226 retired officers and after adding some more it's 294. Now going by the calculation.. if one officer decides 250 objections.. then it will take 80 days. All servicing civil judges will also be permitted now. That is the way out. Retired officers and serving ones from Odisha and Jharkhand will also be added now.
Sr Adv Kalyan Banerjee: Only NDPS and POCSO court judges have been requisitioned and not the civil judges. If judges from different states come they will not understand Bengali.

CJI: let us go by History. Atleast the states were a part of it at one point of time. So they understand the dialect atleast

My new old stock Tandy 1000 SX is now all configured! As mentioned earlier, I'm going to made a video about it at SOME point. But let's talk about the fun I had today with getting it set up. Was setup 100% trouble free? No. But was it the Tandy's fault? Also, no. Time for a ๐Ÿงต Image

The first thing I did was to populate this gorgeous motherboard with a full 640K RAM, and also popped in a NEC V20 processor for the 8088. Flawless! No issues whatsoever with this! Image

Next up, I jammed in some cards. Network. XTIDE. Multi I/O. Real Time Clock. On boot, we see the XTIDE option ROM screen, so we are now cooking! Image

I read the NIA response to the Wildlife Trusts so you donโ€™t have to.
Out of their 10 โ€˜factsโ€™ we have:

5 strawman fallacies
2 agreements
1 recycled Britain Remade blog point
1 circular evidence (using the source being challenged as evidence)
1 repeat answer
0 debunking ๐Ÿงต
They start off with a strawman fallacy, attacking an argument the WT never made.

The Wildlife Trusts claim is about which nuclear case study carries the evidential weight, not whether other projects are โ€˜mentionedโ€™.

The Wildlife Trustsโ€™ is not factually incorrect here. Image
Image
Just to remove any doubt in your mind here are the pages NIA are referring to so you can see for yourself Hinkley C is clearly the primary nuclear example in the review. Itโ€™s the main case study used to fuel weakening habitats regulations for nuclear projects. Image

Day 2: Morning

Winnette (*Celia Winnette, for the AHRC, who yesterday I had been calling 'Bell' all afternoon) continuing.

Starts by addressing the judge's question from yesterday about the justices' reasons in Lifestyle Communities and ADI. In relation to the purpose of...
the applicants' conduct, and how it is different from the subjective intentions of the applicant.

As backdrop: the Sex Discrimination Act (SDA) prohibits discrimination because differentiation and exclusion on the basis of protected characteristics is incompatible with...
the dignity and equality of individuals. This is relevant in a setting of gender identity (GI) discrimination.

If we look at the notes on the 2013 amendments to the SDA. We see the identification of the mischief. Parliament has identified the problem as the high levels of...

@mattvanswol @Bitcoin_Teddy Yes, poverty and general violence have never qualified for U.S. asylum nor UN refugee status.

Visiting the country one โ€˜fledโ€™ proves that the asylum claim is fraudulent.

WOWZER folksโ€ฆ this is some Grade A Bullshitโ€ฆ Shall we put some facts out there?

1 - Premier has it reversed - the Section of Emergency Medicine (SEM) โ€œhoped govt would work with us to get these positions in placeโ€. They havenโ€™t met w us...
1/8
Not a single meeting. Nothing planned. NADA.

The Premier is talking about formal AMA negotiations?โ€ฆ the TLP is a disaster mode mitigating strategy that has NOTHING to do with formal negotiations - these take place every 4 YEARS! And she knows this.
2/8
Putting this into formal negotiationsโ€ฆ wow that would be some mighty fine RED TAPE thereโ€ฆ

Fact: this govt has done NOTHING to work w SEM/Emerg docs on these positions since promising them. NOTHING.

MY FRIEND IS STILL PAYING FOR GMAIL STORAGE.

I told him to do this before.
He went from 14.9/15 GB to 6 GB in a single afternoon.

Hope this helps you โ†“
1. Find the real space hogs in Gmail

First, check Gmailโ€™s storage breakdown:

Go to drive.google.com/settings/storaโ€ฆ

Check what is using space in Gmail, Drive, and Photos

Click on โ€œGmailโ€ to see the main culprits

Then, in the Gmail search bar, type:

has:attachment larger:10M (finds emails larger than 10 MB)

Sort by size, select several, and delete what you donโ€™t need

Try larger:5M or larger:3M for a more aggressive cleanup

Just deleting large attachments can instantly free up gigabytes of space.
2. Delete entire categories in bulk

Gmail automatically sorts emails โ€” use this to clean up quickly:

Search: category:promotions (all promotional emails)

Search: category:social (Facebook, LinkedIn, etc. notifications)

Search: category:updates (receipts, confirmations)

Check the box โ†’ โ€œSelect all conversations that match this searchโ€

Delete everything at once

These categories build up over years, and most of them can be safely deleted.
